Well, there is one major exception - the Alfa Romeo 33 Stradale supercar - so maybe they should have said it's available across the entire production-series family currently in production.
Indeed, they are technically correct – the Alfa Romeo 33 Stradale will not hit the streets before next summer, and production won't even be handled by one of Stellantis' factories. Instead, the gas-powered or electric limited-edition supercar will be manufactured, or handcrafted to be more precise, by the famous Carrozzeria Touring Superleggera in Milan, Italy.
Back to Alfa's mainstream models, it's not that hard to achieve this interesting first-ever feat – the premium Italian carmaker only has three model lines on sale worldwide. Now available to order but without giving us the juicy MSRP details, Alfa Romeo has a fresh special series for the $43,340 Giulia Sedan, $43,845 Tonale compact crossover SUV, and $45,950 Stelvio CUV.
It's called 'Tributo Italiano' and – quite obviously – it pays tribute to the brand's origins, "to Italian excellence, and Alfa Romeo's characteristic sportiness." As another logical characteristic, you can choose the Giulia, Stelvio, and Tonale exclusively with just three colors – the trio of hues making out the Italian flag. So, if you're wild at heart, you could buy an example of each and declare your Italian passion from inside the garage.
All three models share the same characteristics, too. There's a two-tone livery with a black roof, a body-colored body kit, the Italian flag on the mirror caps, and more. The exterior dressed in Rosso Alfa, Verde Montreal, or Bianco Alfa is complemented by large alloy wheels – fresh 19-inch option on the Giulia, 20-inch on Tonale, and 21-inch on Stelvio, red Brembo brake calipers, as well as other distinctive styling touches.
The three Tributo Italiano models share the same atmosphere: "new black leather sports seats feature perforations with hints of red, and the front headrests are embroidered with the distinctive new logo of the special series." There's also red stitching on the dashboard, seats, and door panels, and the Tonale Tributo Italiano has a fresh carbon design, ambient lighting, and an aluminum kick plate.
Interestingly, while Alfa says the entire lineup is available as a Tributo Italiano, the Quadrifoglio versions are curiously left out of the party. Instead, the Giulia and Stelvio Tributo Italiano get the 280-horsepower 2.0-liter Turbo gas engine or the 160-hp and 210-hp Turbo diesel mills. Meanwhile, the Tonale is available with electrified powertrains – the 160-horsepower 1.5 or the 280-horsepower Q4 Plug-In Hybrid.
By the way, if the background used for the official presentation of the Tributo Italiano special series feels a bit familiar, it's because they also used the Italian rock city of Matera – a setting that was absolutely brilliantly used in the latest James Bond flick – 2021's No Time to Die. Now I think that calls for a rewatch, don't you?
